About this position
This postdoctoral role at Texas A&M University sits in the Department of Psychology and is centered on research into the cerebellum across aging, menopause, and age-related neurodegenerative disease. The project uses neuroimaging and non-invasive brain stimulation as the main research approaches, with a strong emphasis on longitudinal work and the analysis of cerebellar measures over time.
The successful candidate will contribute to existing and new laboratory studies by helping develop neuroimaging tasks, collecting longitudinal data from community-based participants, and working with behavioral, neuroimaging, and stimulation datasets. The role also includes data analysis and statistical work, evaluating and summarizing results, and contributing to papers, figures, technical reports, and research presentations.
The position is embedded in a psychology and brain sciences environment that includes research strengths in behavioral and cellular neuroscience, cognition and cognitive neuroscience, clinical psychology, and social/personality psychology. The advert highlights collaboration, mentoring of student and graduate researchers, and participation in an active research setting at Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas.
The work combines laboratory, technical, and analytical tasks with opportunities to support publications and research communication in a project focused on cerebellar function in aging.
